On Tuesday, 26 May, Holy Family Catholic Primary School held a prayer liturgy for National Sorry Day. Each child made a hand and wrote words of forgiveness as a symbol of reconciliation. Our Indigenous Education Worker, Mr Luke Mayo, shared his family’s story of being part of the stolen generation. Fr Mon also blessed our new print, the Aboriginal Madonna.

On the 8th of May, Holy Family Catholic Primary School held a Mother’s Day breakfast and prayer liturgy. Students from neighbouring O’Loughlin Catholic College volunteered to come and cook bacon and eggs for the mothers and their children. We also made some tea and coffee for our mothers. Room 12 hosted the liturgy. All the Mums had smiles on their faces while the children sang the songs. Over all, the Mother’s Day Breakfast and liturgy was a good way for the students and Mum’s to celebrate Mother’s Day. A gold coin donation for the breakfast went towards the youth ministry group from O’Loughlin who helped cook the breakfast.
